Come & Get It

I didn't believe in darkness until I met him. The boy with the green eyes. He got me drunk on purpose, continuing to hand me drink after drink at the bar. All because he knew I'd be dumb enough to sign the contract. The contract stating that he had full possession over me and use me for whatever he wanted. And I don’t think the things he wanted were very pleasant. I was in his dark apartment now, he brought me here shortly after the contract was signed. I couldn't see him in the pitch black room, so I thought about running. Escaping. But I knew he was watching me. His stare paralyzed me, and I knew that escaping would be no option. He had me, and there was nothing I could do now… Let Me Go Back to the day we were paired together.

10. Chapter 9

*Morning of the Game*

It was almost 7 and I was as usual already up. I had been in my bedroom getting things done for school and cleaning. At 7 I went and did my chores around the house. At about 7:30ish I texted Herri, telling her that she could come by anytime now for extra practice. And then I texted Harry telling him the game don’t start till noon and where it was. I went and changed out of my pajamas after I finished the dishes, and let Cami outside. I layed in my bed texting Harry. Then I got a text from Herri telling me she was here. I jolted up to get to the door before Cami realized she was here. I didn’t want her to bark and wake my mom. I opened the door to see Herri.

“Hey!” I said letting her in.

“Hi!”

“So do you want to practice now, or relax for few first?”

“Umm, well if I remember you have some explain to do.” She smirked

“Yeah, I do!” I said remembering I promised her I would.

“Come on! “She said going to my bed room. I followed.

We got in my room and we both plopped down on my bed.

“So?” she encouraged me to start.

“How much did I tell you?”

“When you were going on the date.”

“Right – “ I proceeded to tell her about the bet and how we went to his house, and watched the movie etc.

“Is that really a good idea?” she said when I was done telling her everything.

“Probably not. But it’s not like I really have a choice.” I told her.

“Besides, I think I might like him, “I said.

“Are you kidding?”

“What?” I asked innocently.

“Bri, he’s dangerous. He’s in One Direction, he could get up and leave whenever. He’s Harry Styles!” she exclaimed.

“Who?”

“You know? One Direction’s most famous member?”

I gave her a confused look.

She got out her phone and searched through her phone. She finally looked up at me when the song played.

“Why are you playing that?” I asked.

“He’s in the band that sings this song” she blurted out.

“Is that bad?”

“No, but it probably means he is a rich snob. He’s probably one of those people who through their looks and money around to take advantage of people.”

“Maybe he is. But maybe he’s different.” I defended.

“Maybe. But I’m just telling you, be careful.”

Before I could answer my phone rang, I went over to get it.

It was Harry.

“Hello?” I answered.

“Hello, beautiful.”

“Hey, what’s up?”

“Well, I wanted to know if you would let me take you out after your game.”

“I’d love to. But I was supposed to spend the night with my friend.”

“Well, how would she like to come too? I’ll bring along one of my friends too.”

I glanced at her, she was nodding for me to answer.

“We’d love too.”

“Ok, well I’ll see you soon gorgeous.”

“See ya later, bye.” I said hanging up.

Herri was unbelievably excited.

After we talked some more, specifically about our ‘Date’ after our game. We went outside to practice. On our way to the backyard we saw my mom.

“Morning, girls.” She said from the kitchen.

“Good morning mom.” I said.

“Morning” Herri said to her.

“Good luck today, girls.” She said.

“Bri, I just got off the phone with your Grandma.”

“Which Grandma?” I asked.

“Grandma Sandy.”

Grandma Sandy was my Great Grandma. She wasn’t the one with the bad knees though. If it was My Grandma Alford ~ The one with bad knees ~ I’d be flipping out right now.

“What did she say?”

“She kinda needs my help with a surprise, and she’s is babysitting Brandon. Since it’s for Brandon could you babysit Brandon for us please?”

“Of course mum. When will he be here?”

“They will be here in a few minutes, and then we will be leaving.”

“Okay, let me know when they are here.” I said walking out the back door with Herri.

Brandon was my 10 year old cousin, who was under appreciated by his parents. So he stayed with my Grandma most of the time. His birthday was coming up soon, and he would be 11. He was most defiantly my favorite cousin. He was very kind, mature and funny. He always lights up a room.
